Paramount Television Studios is taking a new stab at a Galaxy Quest TV series based on DreamWorks’ cult 1999 sci-fi comedy movie.
The project, which is in early stages of development, is set up at Paramount+. It is executive produced by the film’s producer Mark Johnson via his Gran Via Productions. There is no concept or a writer yet. Reps for Paramount+ and Paramount TV Studios declined comment.

Loved the film!
Not sure about this idea though...
This is one of the comments from OP's article which I think sums it all up very well:

The movie was based on the premise of an adventure occurring off the back of a classic TV show that was erroneously believed to be real by aliens.
Now you’re going to have a TV show about a movie parodying a classic TV show. Will this show be a parody of that parody or will they play it straight, and have it be a continuation of the actual TV show revival that the movie ended on?
And obviously it doesn’t work if you don’t have any of the original cast, because they are what made that movie.
Tim Allen is doing another streaming show with Disney (The Santa Clauses). Sigourney is doing blue alien stuff with Jimmy Cameron. Shalhoub is talking about a Monk revival And R.I.P. Alan Rickman.
Maybe they get Mitchell and perhaps Justin Long?

They already did this. It's called The Orville.

You know he was paralyzed from the waist down in 2001, huh? I'm not saying he couldn't do it (and I'd love to see him in more things) but it limits his ability greatly. He'd never be able to leave his deck chair and wouldn't have a very fulfilling role.

Paramount+, so it's just another throwaway show

Just because we could, doesn't mean we should.

Enjoyable movie but a ridiculous show concept.

By Grabthar's Hammer, it will suck.
